Although Mark Winne now lives in New Mexico, he was a leader in Connecticut for many years on issues of food and farmland. He started the Hartford Food System, and as the long-time director of that organization was involved in starting lots of other organizations: the Working Lands Alliance, the Connecticut Farmland Trust, the Holcomb Farm CSA, etc. He is also a very entertaining as well as informative speaker.
Dear Connecticut Friends:
I want you all to know that I will be speaking at RJ Julia in Madison on April 17th at 7:00 pm. The topic, as you might imagine is my book “Closing the Food Gap: Resetting the Table in the Land of Plenty.” The link takes you to the Courant notice and more information.
Feel free to share the news with your respective network.
All the best and hope to see you there.
Mark Winne
